The Message
Zechariah 9:14-17
The Message
14-17 Then God will come into view,
his arrows flashing like lightning!
Master God will blast his trumpet
and set out in a whirlwind.
God-of-the-Angel-Armies will protect them—
all-out war,
The war to end all wars,
no holds barred.
Their God will save the day. He’ll rescue them.
They’ll become like sheep, gentle and soft,
Or like gemstones in a crown,
catching all the colors of the sun.
Then how they’ll shine! shimmer! glow!
the young men robust, the young women lovely!

Zechariah 9:14-16
New International Version
The Lord Will Appear
14 Then the Lord will appear over them;(A)
his arrow will flash like lightning.(B)
The Sovereign Lord will sound the trumpet;(C)
he will march in the storms(D) of the south,
15 and the Lord Almighty will shield(E) them.
They will destroy
and overcome with slingstones.(F)
They will drink and roar as with wine;(G)
they will be full like a bowl(H)
used for sprinkling[a] the corners(I) of the altar.
16 The Lord their God will save his people on that day(J)
as a shepherd saves his flock.
They will sparkle in his land
like jewels in a crown.(K)
